I would love to be the next ultimate fighter. I would love to be the UFC champion but most importantly, I just wanted the mic because I have something to say, but nobody cares right now. I want to be a motivational speaker and I want to teach people how to find the badass in themselves but unless I can prove that it's possible, it's just hot air like everyone else.[3]
